Is there any reason to dislike Herschel Walker?

Since you asked, this ad reflects his demeanor and determination that many people in Georgia find very appealing, despite his flaws.

I live in Georgia and receive HW mailers. I dont receive Warnock ones-- which itself is unusual since I live in a swing district and despite my current R views, my voting record has been mostly democratic.

The pitch HW's campaign makes is essentially, "he isnt a democrat." I have received 3 so far. One was handwritten on a postcard and was the most detailed. It said HW would vote to keep government spending down to control inflation, he would support the police and strengthen the criminal justice system, and he would keep men out of women's sports (their phrasing, not mine).

The other one could be summarized as, "he is a Republican."

The final one was on a black mailer in white lettering that said "2023 could be worse." Then on the other side, there were blurbs that essentially said voting for HW would constrain the progressive left.

I think this is effective messaging.

If you currently have R views—after all of this—you’re not a Warnock voter.

I was on the fence, and previously posted here I would vote for Warnock. Im still shakey but likely to vote HW.

If “he isn’t a Democrat” is all it takes to convince you, you are a Republican. Own it.

Yeah, I do. This isnt about me, though. It is super odd that Warnock isnt sending any campaign material to people with a long and established history of voting democratic. It's a tight race, and Warnock's to lose, really.

DP here. The problem here is that you don't understand election laws. There is no way for either party to know that you have a "long and established history of voting democratic." Your vote is secret and private. The only way they have of knowing about you is if you are registered as a Democrat or that you have donated to Democratic candidates. I'm a long-time Republican but by the end of 2019, I had soured on the party I had been a part of for 34 years. I started donating to several key elections in various states. And this election cycle, I can't stop the reaching out. My email, cell/texts, and advertising are bombarded with both Republican ads (because I'm registerd Republican) and Democratic ads (because I donated Democratic).

So, if you are Republican, but have never donated Democratic, they Democrats don't have you on their radar or mailing/contact lists. There is no way that they can get your voting history. If you've been paying attention to the last 2.5 years, the Republicans have been trying to foist their stolen election agenda on the public and they claim that if they can get access to election results they can prove it. But it's been stated and proven in court that this is against the law. Partisan parties are not allowed access to election machines, ballots or any other documentation of votes because we are entitled to privacy of our votes.

+2 Finally watched it and I find that combination of passion and truth telling to be refreshing. I like the repudiation of what the GOP is trying to serve to Black voters.

You're going to vote for Walker because you didn't get any Warnock mailers? Come on, tell the truth. You were always going to vote for Walker.

Oh, no. That's not my reason at all. As I said, this isnt about me or my reasoning. Im sharing what I am observing about the campaigns. My reason is actually that I would rather have the GOP control the senate, even if that comes with serious issues with HW. I actually came to this while listening to Democratic talking points about Fetterman.

Because abortion rights are not of concern to you.
Because integrity is not of concern to you.
Because you don't want Biden to get to appoint another SCOTUS if a seat becomes open.
Because you want nothing to get through congress the next two years -- which it won't if Republicans control it. You know that, of course.

When Democrats were in control, they slowed down the Senate to the point it would have taken 11 years for Trump to get his administration staffed. McConnell then changed the rules to cut down on debate time from 30 hours to 2 per nominee.

THE DEMOCRATS NEVER CONTROLLED THE SENATE WHILE TRUMP WAS PRESIDENT.

That's how McConnell got to change the rules, and eventually speed things up.

That ad is a lot of fluff: Aw, shucks, I’m a small town boy who excelled on the gridiron because I worked so hard. I’m not here to talk about policy, but I will name 4 reasons why I’m conservative, even though two of them do not relate to today’s Republican Party in any way, but they sure do sound good. Vote for your homegrown football hero, the Black Republican!

So Trump was never affected by those delays, and McConnell took charge of the Senate in January 2015 after which Obama’s appointees were stymied - one of them died waiting for her hearing. Do you ever get tired of being wrong?

You forgot what actually happened: Trump had nothing prepared. No appointees. No staff. No real plans. He was incompetent and the people he did appoint were incompetent or had shocking conflicts of interest.

Democrats used the full time for nominees that were approved unanimously.

Trump had nominees who were approved unanimously?

So what? They had to be vetted and investigated. There were a lot of corrupt and unqualified appointments by Trump. There was no backlog because Trump didn’t give a shit about filling government positions.

Why don’t you tell us how accommodating Republicans were to Obama and Biden? Democrats have never been a fraction as obstructionist as McConnell has been.
